House Bill 2266 amends the Local Government Code to prohibit a municipality from adopting a requirement that establishes a maximum sales price for a privately produced housing unit or a residential building lot. The bill provides that the prohibition does not affect a municipality's authority to offer incentives or other voluntary programs to increase the number of low income housing units or its authority to establish a requirement applicable to certain homestead preservation districts. The bill provides that the prohibition does not apply to certain existing municipal requirements or to land that is part of an urban land bank program.
